North Brewham Meadows is a 21.9-acre area in Somerset, England. It's notable because it is a biological Site of Special Scientific Interest.
According to Wikipedia, North Brewham Meadows is of special scientific interest because it is home to the "nationally rare Common Knapweed Crested Dog's tail-type." I have no idea what that means. I do think it's the only time I've seen the words "rare" and "common" used back-to-back. North Brewham Meadows is also home to butterflies, including the Small Copper, the Ringlet, and the Meadow Brown.
This Common Knapweed is not Crested Dog's tail-type.
